Alma, Michigan Citizens Organize to Oppose Home for UACs in Their Community

Editor:  I am posting this story here and at RRW today because it supports my recent harangue that you must get to work locally!  There is no one coming to your rescue as the Open Borders agitators expand their reach into towns large and small across the country.

They are working day and night to change America by changing the people!

The only hope you have now is to fight against the Progressive Left where you live!  Local elected officials can still be moved through public pressure.  There really is no hope at the state or federal level right now. 

Alma has a population of about 10,000! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alma%2C_Michigan

Here is a brief report of what is happening in Alma, Michigan where a federal resettlement subcontractor is planning to open a “home” for Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) who are not refugees, but have recently invaded the southern border.

See data: mostly teenaged males! And, don’t you dare use the word “alien” says the Biden Administration.

These local citizens speaking up against the plan are doing what you should be doing where you live because I will bet the ‘religious’ Leftwingers are a step ahead of you and have either begun moving ‘new Americans’ to your community or have you in their sites.

From the Epoch Times:

Resettlement of Unaccompanied Minors Divides Michigan Town

ALMA, Mich.—A proposal to open a 36-bed residential resettlement facility for illegal alien teenagers in a small central Michigan city has ignited a firestorm of opposition from its citizens.

An estimated 400 people attended the City of Alma Planning Commission’s July 12 public hearing to voice their opinions on the issue. The planning commission is expected to make a recommendation to the city commission on Aug. 4 on whether to approve a request for the conditional rezoning of a recently closed nursing home facility owned by Michigan Masonic Home—also known as Masonic Pathways—a fraternal philanthropic nonprofit organization.

Bethany Christian Services, a nonprofit corporation based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, that would operate the facility, has signed a letter of intent to lease the 6.1-acre property for an annual rent of $385,440, for the purpose of running what it calls “a small group shelter for the short-term care of low-risk youth from 12 to 17 years of age.” Bethany’s goal is to connect the youths with relatives or place them in foster homes.

The Alma shelter, and other such arrangements across Michigan and beyond, are part of the Biden administration’s effort to disseminate the thousands of migrants surging across the United States’ southern border and throughout the interior of the country, and place them in what it calls “influx sites.”

During the month of March, more than 19,000 unaccompanied minors were taken into custody at the southern border by Border Patrol, the largest monthly number in U.S. history.

Bethany Christian Services (subcontractor of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service*** located in Baltimore, MD) says it doesn’t cost Michigan anything because the feds are footing the bill.  Well, obviously the federal money is our money!

Moving them in secrecy!

Media organizations operating in Texas have reported for weeks that unaccompanied children taken into custody at the U.S.–Mexico border are being flown on U.S. military or other government-supplied airplanes to undisclosed destinations. The locations aren’t being divulged out of “concern for the safety of the children,” one federal official said.

At the public hearing in Alma, a spokesperson for Bethany Christian Services explained how the process is paid for, saying: “Everything is fully funded by the U.S. government.

“This program doesn’t cost the state of Michigan anything.

Bethany plays the Christian card….

“Bethany’s mission is to demonstrate the love and compassion of Jesus by protecting children. It is a moral issue.”

Audience member Dr. Jeff Smith, who strongly opposes the proposed resettlement center in Alma, appeared to take offense at the claim that the issue is a moral one.

“Don’t lecture me about what’s morally right,” he said. “I went to these countries on medical mission trips. I’m not going to be told I am morally bad by people who stand to make millions.”

There is more here.

Here is more information that shows that the citizens of Alma are doing their homework!

Just so you know, you may see less of me because I plan to spend more time taking my own advice!

What do we do now? Fight Back Locally!

 

***I wrote about the role of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, one of two major refugee contractors (US Conference of Catholic Bishops is the second major government contractor) who are paid to ‘take care of’ the mostly teenaged border jumpers here in April.

See that the largest portion of LIRS federal boodle is for UAC ‘care.’

    This is the lie they tell tell people. Everything they are doing comes from our tax dollars and George Soros groups of donors….but mostly us. WE are paying for our own destructions.

    As an update to our situation in Shelby county TN….seeing more and more “strangers” strolling through our neighborhood looking around.

    Walmart and Kroger getting less and less fully stocked. They are also having the problem of not being able to keep enough workers to stock the shelves because they are sitting at home with Joe Biden’s “free money.”

    They can have all the free money they want….but they forget…they are customers and consumers also. What good is their free money if there is noting on the shelves?

    1. >This is the lie they tell tell people.

      Of course you’re right to point out how dishonest they are about the financial aspect, and the role their organization plays, i.e. despite often misleading names (something to do with religion and charity), they are self-interested federal contractors with many employees making very good money; these people would be out of a job were the flow of refugees to stop — so they are dishonest and venal.

      The unmentionable cost is the further deterioration of America’s racial demographics that these refugees ultimately represent — this is already having grave political consequences (does anyone really believe America would be as politically divided as it is now if it was still 90% white?), and will later have serious economic consequences, i.e. once the rest of the world tires of allowing the US to print as much money as it wants, and acts in concert to end both the petrodollar regime and the reign of the USD as the ‘world’s reserve currency’.

  2. Most people illegally crossing our borders carry no identification documents. When processed by the federal agents they are producing US documents using the names, dates of birth, and nationalities provided by the invader.

    So if you are actually 26 and wish to be 16, because it gives you a legal foothold in America, so be it. Even if you are a murderer from El Salvador, you can simply create a whole new identity in the US.

    Ain’t it great!

    1. >Most people illegally crossing our borders carry no identification documents.

      If they’re crossing/entering to apply for asylum, that’s not illegal — since the US does not have a ‘safe third country’ agreement with Mexico, it would be illegal to turn them away/refuse to consider their application for asylum.

      No doubt there is considerable precedent, including legal precedent, re how to handle someone applying for asylum who does not have ‘papers’; but it’s very doubtful turning them away is legal — a common tactic in 2015 was for asylum seekers in Europe to throw away their documents and claim to be Syrian, since it was thought this would increase their chances of being given asylum — the most (in)famous case of this is the Schwertmörder (sword murderer) in Stuttgart, named as Issa M. in the media — in reality a Jordanian, he pretended to be Syrian when he came to Germany in 2015 — seems the guy he slaughtered on the street discovered his lie, and either was going to or had already told authorities.

      The following article has the gory (literally) details — use your browser to translate it into English:

    1. I did see it, and LOL! I assume all of you read Gateway Pundit so I don’t have to repeat their news!

    2. First sentence of the Gateway Pundit article:

      [As hundreds of illegal immigrants surge across the southern border daily, …]

      LOL — yes, start the article off with red meat for the Trumptard midwits who (among others) read the Gateway Pundit.

      What’s going on at the southern border, i.e. economic migrants applying for asylum en masse, is of course a farce; much more seriously/importantly, it’s part of the (racial) tragedy that is the rapid and ongoing demographic destruction of America — but it’s not illegal to cross the border/enter in order to apply for asylum — in fact, since the US has no ‘safe third country’ agreement with Mexico, it would be illegal for the US to turn them away/fail to duly consider their application for asylum.

      Make a note of it.
